PVC Tarpaulin FAQ
Do you supply samples?
Can I buy less than a full roll?
Yes. We specialize in providing cut lengths. You can also mix different fabrics, weights and colors in one order.

Yes. We offer preferential wholesale pricing on all orders of 5 full rolls or more.
What widths are available?
We stock 1.5m widths for 400gsm and 3.0m widths for our 550gsm, 700gsm, and 800gsm ranges.
Help me Understanding Fabric Weight – what is gsm?
In the industrial fabric industry, thickness and strength are measured in GSM, which stands for Grams per Square Metre (g/m2). This tells you exactly how much PVC coating and polyester base cloth is used in every square metre of material. Lower GSM = Lighter weight, more flexible, and easier to handle for small projects. Higher GSM = More PVC coating, higher tear resistance, and longer lifespan.
Can I use this for my own custom-built project?
Absolutely. While we list common uses like tents and truck covers, our PVC is designed for infinite applications. If it needs to be waterproof and our PVC fabric is the right choice.
